Puzzle Description:

Ski jumping.

After the color/line logic, you will be left with black. I used edge logic on column 15 to dot most of that column. The black three can either go in the top or bottom section.

Now look at columns 1-5. Imagine if R19C1-R21C5 were all dots. This would make you fill in R17C1-R17C5 with black making row 17 invalid. So we know that at least one of cells in R19C1-R21C5 is black. But if any of these are black then R19C15-R21C15 would have to be dots.

The rest solves easily from there.

Found to be logically solvable by Gator.

Didn't know what it was until I read your description and then it was instantly recognizable! Nice use of color!

i solved it backwards from you gator (but using the same logic)
i also did edge logic to get the black 3 clue narrowed down to the top or bottom section and then saw that if i put the black 3 at the bottom row 17 would be invalid

Cute! I solved color by color: blue, green, black, then red.

NICE!

I can see it. Exhilarating!

I used edge logic for the black, too. I love the image.

Thanks Edith. I tried the front view of the same ski jumper but I couldn't make it work too well.

I wish I had an art for creating art. I bet it would be hard to do a ski jumper from the front or back. I was very impressed you captured him/her from the side.
